Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on July 1, 1935 and confirmed on September 30, 1983.
The seals of the town, known since 1541 all showed a canting church (Münster), and the lion of Nassau. The new arms were based on the old seals. The town belonged to Nassau from the 14th century until 1803.
 The arms by Hupp in the Kaffee Hag albums +/- 1925 |
 Municipal stationery, 1960s |
Literature: Stadler, 1964-1971, 8 volumes.
